<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 2676344, member: 36230&quot;]Is it safe to assume your &quot;30x&quot; and &quot;60x&quot; loupes are inexpensive Chinese models? I ask because from your description it sounds like they&#039;re not of the claimed magnification, which is fairly common with inexpensive loupes. A true 30x should be more than enough to see most any accepted variety clearly. In fact, I believe the strongest I ever used was 16x, and was sufficient.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for a USB scope, please spend a little time reading up on exactly how they work, especially if you&#039;re worried about distortion. Most simply will not be the solve-all you seem to think, and in fact, may put you at an even greater disadvantage. As an example: did you know that many of such scopes are notorious for giving the impression, due to the lights/glare, of doubling where none is present?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
